There are no longer any plastic external body panels on our new machines; instead they have 100% high strength pressed steel bodywork.

NEW GENERATION CONTROL

The JCB compact excavator range was designed with comfort and ergonomics at the forefront.

JCB compact excavators boast an innovative new rotary controller and easy touch switches have been specially designed for easy operation. With ergonomic electro-hydraulic dozer control as standard, operators can achieve smooth and precise grade control.

You can easily adjust and program flow settings for specific attachments, with built in memory to store your settings so that they can be easily retrieved between jobs. Information such as service and machine diagnostics help the operator keep on top of the status of the machine. Alerts and service interval countdowns will keep you up to date, and always one step ahead of possible downtime.

A key benefit of the LiveLink and immobilizer combination is the remote pin code management system, which allows you to remotely authorize or deny the usage of the machine. Up to 14 individual pin codes can be programmed into the system, offering the option to customize operator preferences by embedding a separate auxiliary mode in each code.

NEW GENERATION EFFICIENCY

Because damage sometimes happens on sites, we use flat glass windows throughout the new JCB 57C-1 compact excavator, as well as 100% steel bodywork, minimizing possible replacement costs.

Engine revs reduce when the operators armrest is raised, improving fuel economy and noise levels. Theres a One-Touch Idle feature that conserves fuel too. Programmable auto idle, meanwhile, can be activated when the controls have been inactive for a period.

Control your 57C-1 compact excavator's engine speed for different hydraulic flows by simply cycling through four different power bands: Light, Eco, Heavy and Heavy Plus. This means you can tailor performance to any application.

NEW GENERATION PERFORMANCE

The conventional tailswing JCB 57C-1 compact excavator offers you tremendous stability, lifting capacity and a larger dig end for ultimate excavator performance. The Tier 4 Final engine requires no DPF.

An overload screen displays a bar chart from green to red, indicating whether the overload point is close or exceeded. Once the limit is passed, the buzzer sounds and the bar flashes to warn the operator.
